Chelsea boss Antonio Conte is on the radar of Real Madrid president Florentino Perez.

The Sun says Conte is high up on a list of candidates to succeed current coach Zinedine Zidane who is under increasing pressure.

Conte still has a year and a half to go on his £10million-a-season deal at Chelsea but has also been linked with a return to Italian giants AC Milan.

With constant speculation that he is not entirely happy with life at Stamford Bridge and fancies a move home, Milan were the early front-runners to persuade Conte to quit England in the summer.

Madrid, currently fourth in LaLiga, were forced to endure the embarrassment of finishing as runners-up to Tottenham in their Champions League group this season.

And as a result they have since been drawn against highly-fancied Paris Saint-Germain — led by £198m Brazilian hotshot Neymar — in the round of 16.
